If the NULL test on h is needed in snd_harmony_mixer_init, then the dereference should be after the NULL test. Actually, there is a sequence of calls: snd_harmony_create, then snd_harmony_pcm_init, and then snd_harmony_mixer_init. snd_harmony_create initializes h, but may indeed leave it as NULL. There was no NULL test at the beginning of snd_harmony_pcm_init, so I have added one. The NULL test in snd_harmony_mixer_init is then not necessary, but in case the ordering of the calls changes, I have left it, and moved the dereference after it. A simplified version of the semantic match that detects this problem is as follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/): // <smpl> @match exists@ expression x, E; identifier fld; @@ * x->fld ... when != \(x = E\|&x\) * x == NULL // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> |
